Gorilla Trekking in Uganda's Bwindi Impenetrable Forest

Gorilla Trekking in Uganda's Bwindi Impenetrable Forest is a once-in-a-lifetime experience.

Almost half of the planet’s remaining mountain gorillas live within the Bwindi Impenetrable National Park in Uganda. It’s one of only three locations left in the world where people can see these critically endangered animals in the wild. Located in Southwestern Uganda, Bwindi covers 124 square miles (320 square kilometers) of mountain forests and jungle well-known for its rich biodiversity. Besides the iconic mountain gorillas, there are about 120 species of mammals, 300 birds, and 202 species of butterflies who all live amongst the 200 different tree types and 100 types of fern.

While the park is also a birdwatcher’s paradise (typical sightings of 150 species in a single day isn’t uncommon) and has more mammal species than any other of Uganda’s national parks, travelers come to this UNESCO World Heritage Site to see mountain gorillas in their natural habitat.

After our recent gorilla trekking in the Bwindi Impenetrable Forest, we realized that our trekking guides, their families, and the community were in desperate need of supplies. We have contacts with the local clinic and can send supplies directly to them. The people that protect and care for the last remaining 700 mountain gorillas in the wild also need our help. Without these women, men, and children who tirelessly watch over these majestic animals, gorillas in the wild will go extinct. Please help the gracious community who do not have the resources they need for basic health, schooling, playtime. There aren't any deep-pocket NGOs supporting this community. They fund their own school and clinic both of which are completely drained of all imaginable resources. Remember, buying something off of this list will go directly to all the people we met in the Kahurire Village in Uganda.

Gorilla Trekking - Nshongi Mountain Gorilla Baby and Silverback in Bwindi National Park, Uganda

We found some members of Nshongi mountain gorilla group on our gorilla trek, including a new-born baby and the silverback. They were taking their lunch deep inside Bwindi Impenetrable national park, Uganda. It took the trackers who were in front of us a while to find the family's position because of the hilly terrain. Also, the family was very excited because of a fight which had taken place between the Nshongi and Mishaya Silverbacks. Finally, however, we were lucky to get a close look at these amazing animals.

Silverback Mountain gorilla - Bwindi Impenetrable Forest Park - Uganda 4K

The mountain gorilla (Gorilla beringei beringei) is one of the two subspecies of the eastern gorilla. It is listed as endangered by the IUCN as of 2018.

There are two populations: One is found in the Virunga volcanic mountains of Central Africa, within three National Parks: Mgahinga, in southwest Uganda; Volcanoes, in northwest Rwanda; and Virunga, in the eastern Democratic Republic of Congo (DRC).

The other population is found in Uganda's Bwindi Impenetrable National Park. Some primatologists speculate the Bwindi population is a separate subspecies, though no description has been finalized. As of June 2018, there were more than 1,000 individuals.

The mountain gorilla is highly social, and lives in relatively stable, cohesive groups held together by long-term bonds between adult males and females. Relationships among females are relatively weak. These groups are nonterritorial; the silverback generally defends his group rather than his territory.

The dominant silverback generally determines the movements of the group, leading it to appropriate feeding sites throughout the year. He also mediates conflicts within the group and protects it from external threats. When the group is attacked by humans, leopards, or other gorillas, the silverback will protect them, even at the cost of his own life.

Baby Mountain Gorillas Playing & HUGE Silverback Gorilla Encounter

In the full version of this video, you will see my gorilla trekking experience in Rwanda, as well as my visit to the Dian Fossey Gorilla Fund in Rwanda. See the full version here:

This video shows baby mountain gorillas playing, as well as adult mountain gorillas eating, relaxing, and socializing. We also get up close and face-to-face with a huge silverback gorilla. This is the Susa Family of Gorillas.

This footage was taken in Volcanoes National Park, Rwanda. Mountain gorillas are a critically endangered species and you can support their revival by paying to see them in the wild.

Gorilla's in Bwindi, Uganda

This video is the softer side of the mountain gorillas of Bwindi. Our experience was one of a kind and caring Silverback. We weren't attacked or intimidated by so many other videos. This actually shows and adult male giving a very young gorilla some tender, lovin'. He is so gentle with the little one. Although one of the mothers looks a bit concerned about another gorilla getting too close to her baby, although they all end up napping together. An amazing experience.

Mountain gorillas, silverback, toddler, and baby nursing

Eastern mountain gorillas in Parc National des Volcans, Rwanda. The hike to reach them was hard. Two and a half hours, uphill all the way. My GPS recorded that we gained 1417 feet (432 m) in elevation and reached 9,992 ft (3046 m). It was worth it to be that close to the world's largest primate. We saw 10 of the 11 members of this family. Mountain gorillas are listed as endangered with less than 500 individuals in the world. The good news is that the population is growing, in 1981 a census reported only 254 of them. The tourism in the area seems to help. The population is growing fastest where they have the most contact with people. The local folks see the benefit so they are more protected from poaching and habitat destruction. The risk is that the gorillas will catch the flu or other disease for which they have no resistance from us.
